A majority of the staff have seen salary rollbacks up to 25 per cent, which includes team president Rick LeLacheur as well as other front-office executives.
Lalji notes that the Lions are the sixth known team to implement some sort of payroll reduction measure.
The CFL postponed the opening of training camps and three combines and pushed back the start of the regular season in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
